As an American citizen I can truly say to those crying at the border…I laugh at your tears! ??

Mexico and other Countries. Why does no one ask what they are doing for their citizens?\nThis is not an American problem

They are all Mexican citizens now.

When a US citizen is arrested, who picks up their kids from school. What about their trauma? You were in limbo the moment you decided to leave your country to break into the US. So cry, but those tears don't water any flowers. Mexico can have them and then they will understand the financial burden on our citizens. They are criminals because they broke numerous countries laws and these countries are a sovereign nation like the US. Trump works for US citizens and when he stops doing the will of the people that voted him into office, we will get him removed just like Biden and Harris. We have had enough!!

A app to become a legal Citizen and they get to stay here while the process takes years wtf was Biden thinking smh

DW --ANY -- country HAVING A PROTECTED BORDER is necessary to ensure safety of citizens...

Some countries have those laws, just because you're born there does not automatically make you a citizen. One, or both of your parents must be a citizen, in some countries, specifically the father.

my mom was illegal and had me in the U.S 15 years ago. i’m an american citizen born under immigrant parents. will anything happen to me or will i still be an american citizen ?

Finally a USA president that is protecting borders, language, and culture. Making US citizens safer and putting American citizens first. ??

As for that Elena Barrera, you had 27 years to fix your immigration status, clearly you didn't care enough to become a legal citizen, so you can go. Good bye.

Holy Mole Di the Cow, the curry world ppl is asking why their visa is rejected? In the near future they not only reject your visa, they all will stop their citizens entering India.

Now we can help the people in OUR country and stop giving away money to people that kill our citizens

So that guy's spanking a piñata because he's mad about his fellow citizens returning home? All i have to say about that is don't drink on the job, then get on camera acting like a bozo.

The Trump piñata was a huge mistake.\nDo your country president Pinata and get your anger out with your president pinata. Trump is not your president and the USA citizens voted for Trump!\nIgnorant people ?

Finally a President who is taking his responsibilities and oath of office seriously and enforcing our laws and prioritizing the health and safety of the American Citizen.

They feel entitled! US citizen first??

We are north American people and we are paying for all the benefits they received, we are native we are not allowed to receive those benefits , we have to work hard specially to pay our medical bills, they are coming give birth to their children, travel to their countries and never pay their hospital bills.! Who pays? Citizens taxes.

Meanwhile US citizens are frantically looking for a way out

This is absolutely ridiculous!! It is not a RIGHT to come into our country. It is something that legal immigrants spend months to years and a lot of personal money to do. Just like most of our ancestors. We have lost a family member and a friend to fentanyl. I support closing the borders and deportations after that clown of a job the Biden admin has done these past four years. Our country has never been weaker than one day ago. So grateful we finally have a president that is pro-America. That is how it SHOULD be. If a country’s leaders aren’t doing their job to follow the governments laws and they aren’t making their own country safe for their citizens that is on them. Not the USA to allow anyone and everyone in. Crime is rampant. Drugs are flowing across the border. This is needed and you are manipulating truth.

They knew this was coming. Sorry, doesn’t matter if it’s fair. It’s not fair you people were taken care of over actual citizens.

That one guy thinks it’s unfair. But US citizens having their money stolen to help support him is totally fair. Screw him.

we dont care about your feelings. American citizens first

They were informed/warned way ahead of time, so it should not be a surprise to anyone! The majority of the American citizens voted for Trump partly because they want him to fix the migration problems that developed during the Biden-Harris leadership! It's time for the border crisis to end!

The whole world could see this coming. The Americans want a secure border and they like the rest of the western citizens are sick and tired of the open borders. Australia has the same problem we have a disgustly slack leftist government allowing people through airports

At ~4min - I could not imagine our President, complaining about a neighboring nation shutting down the border so our citizens could not leave, then complain that I have to manage our systems that will be overrun (with our citizens). SMH

You talk as if non-American citizens have a right to enter the U.S. They don't. Neither legal, nor moral. the US people have elected a leader who promised to close the border. And that is what he should do.

So sad, their meal ticket, their free ride paid for by US Citizens, against their will, has ended.. :(

Ms. Sharma went to Oxford and gave a cringeworthy performance about the supposed strength of Indian passport and how it is the envy of the word. So. didn't expect much substance from the propaganda spreading jingoistic journalist. She conveniently missed mentioning the real reasons why visa applications of Indians get rejected -\n1) Thousands of Indians go on tourists visas only to 'disappear' and never return. It doesn't just happen in Canada, US, UK, Aus but also welcoming countries like Thailand, UAE.\n2) Indian Visa (to visit India) itself is one of the most expensive and complicated to get for foreigners, so other countries have no incentive to make it easier for Indian citizens.\n3) Developed countries know that if they make it 'easier' for Indians to travel to their country, they will end up with tens of thousands who wont want to go back to India. It is already the case when its difficult to get a visa, imagine the situation if its made easier.\n4) Most of the Indian tourists fall under the mass category, they are not like the heavy spending Chinese tourists. We are not the most well behaved, so till we start getting more affluent, we wont be in as much demand.

Funny how there are comments on this forum that make the assumption that family members have love for this woman to begin with. \n\nJust because someone is in your family doesn't mean they automatically love you unconditionally. These people can also be opportunists and only show up to a Hispanic citizen because of convinence.

Ram mandir built,modi third time in power..Why our citizens applying USA visa???????

As an Indian citizen, I can clearly understand why do visas are rejected. If you give visit visa they will disappear in that country and live there.

In Canada, if your are a citizen, you have health coverage. If you have cancer, you will be treated.

There’s more pride and nationalism projected in this video than real facts. Why do Indians need visas? It’s very simple: Most Indians are more likely to figure out a way to stay abroad once they touchdown abroad. \n\nAmericans, Canadians, Europeans, etc, don’t need visas wherever they go because most of them always return to their countries eventually no matter where they visit and how long they’re away. \n\nCitizens who don’t need visas wherever they go hardly ever leave their own countries for another. It’s really very simple. Just look at Singapore, Switzerland, etc. How often do you see their citizens leave such countries for another? Almost never. That’s why.\n\nIt sounds like she’s trying to make an argument that this rule shouldn’t apply to Indians because India’s economy is powerful. You need to convince this fact to the Indians who are leaving India, because if you can’t even sell this point to those Indians leaving India, then you don’t even have a case.

INDIA IS NOT A RICH COUNTRY. POVERTY .CORRUPTION AND ILLEGAL MIGRATION FROM INDIA IS RISING .THE REASON WHY THE INDIAN PASSPORT IS NOT SO STRONG. THE LIVING STANDARD OF THE MAJORITY OF INDIAN CITIZENS IS VERY LOW .MANY DEVELOPED COUNTRYS DO NOT TRUST INDIAN CITIZENS.

If India is the 5th biggest economy then why r its citizens going abroad. This 5th biggest economy just seems like full of hot air and immigration of its citizens suggests they r poor looking for a better country ?

Foreigners should be ashamed of rejecting the citizens of vishwaguru

the likes of Palki and so called other journalist is if something bad happens to Indians the other party is racist but if something bad happens to people in China, Nepal, Bangladesh etc the reason is those countries citizens. They have made millions pandering lies and will continue to do so. Where is herviswaguru and welcome for indians speech in Oxford now.\n\nAs they say you dont have to go to war to destroy a nation but just inbibe in their mind falsehood and they will themselves take the plunge to hell.

Here's a refined version of your message:\n\n---\n\nThere is a significant number of Indians in Australia and New Zealand, many of whom initially arrived as international students and chose to stay. This has contributed to a rise in house rents and increased difficulty in finding accommodation. With a population of 28 million, Australia sees a high presence of Indians, who often fill many job positions, making it challenging for citizens to find employment. The Australian and New Zealand governments are partly to blame for issuing visas without expanding housing and job opportunities to accommodate the influx of visitors, students, and immigrants.\n\n---\n\nI hope this helps. If you need any further adjustments, feel free to let me know.

We indians filling up other countries.\nAnd destroying their culture and scamming people job scam, visa scam, student visa scam scamming older citizens in other countries scamming our own people.\nEvery country should stop indians entering their countries.\nUntill unless they behave and they have legit documents and experience.\nBecause of some fake Indians legit talent is not getting chance.

5th largest economy? It is also the defecation capital of the world? Is she aware of the visa, and other call center scams from India. It is the citizens of India who are responsible for the untrustworthy reputation of India. Charity begins at home.

Well it would be worth mentioning here that they should also curb the fradulant visa paper works as well. Since that kind of practices only hurts the rest of the law abiding citizens. Sadly in the process they are looked at as trouble some...

The reason is that some Indian finds it difficult to integrates.\n\n I know one Indian lady that have lived in one country for over 20 years and the lady cannot speak the language of that country. What a shame! \n\nSecondly, many of them like to dominate or discriminate against other people. It has been alleged that some Indian people discriminate against others in many places they work. For instance! Where their people are in charge in Canada, they will not offer jobs to none Indian. They preferred to give the job to an illegal immigrants from india than to give it to someone else who has complete paper work. \nThe video is on YouTube. \n\nIllegal immigrants from India protest boldly in Canada asking government to give them papers but reserve is the case in India. If an illegal immigrants is found anywhere in India, the name of that person is sorry. Too many foreigners are in India prisons for minor offence or immigration matters. I can go on and and on. \n\nVisa rejection is not a bad thing!!! Everyone must protest his or her own. \n \n\nIf it is possible, everyone should stay in their own country. No movement. Do business with your own people. No international business!!! \n\nOur ancestors survived without others, therefore we can survive too. \n\nI know many people will not like this comment but it is an opinion. \n\nI still like India but will not live there. Good luck to them. \n\n\nIn my view their ascent contributes to numerous visa denials. Let's say 10% . Then 30% is forgery. It has been alleged that some of them do too many documents forgery to get to Canada or whereever they wish to travel.\n Then \n10% is women maltreatment. (stories of rape etc). \n\n Finally, india is very big, they need to use their population as a tool for development. They have all it takes to be like China. 100%\n\nWake up Indian government. Look after your citizens or divide the damn country. It is too big. ?

Indian should go to finishing school. They should rebuild there educational system so the youth shouldn’t go out of country for education. They should create jobs and opportunities so youth is not frustrated and don’t have go to other western countries and treated like a second class citizens. Have pride for heavens sake.

India should introduce a PRIVILEGE PASSPORT\n\n\ngiven to citizens who are Educated, have travelled , have good job in a reputed org\n\nI know it seems unfair....but this is the way to improve People on a whole

When you dont let people come in your house as people want then dont express your stupid analogy of have gates. If so why the heck you have borders on pakistan and china? Our own people are the reason why they have started rejecting visas. People come here in the name of education and then demand PR. Many come here with dodgy certificates for which some indian states are banned. Majority come here and dont assimilate but instead make their own country within a country even becoming citizens. If u r so proud why come here?

Under BJP all Indian citizen get visa … it was under Nehru and congress Indian didn’t get visa

We went to leave Canada too and both my husband and I were born and raised in Canada. We even moved from southern Ontario to Saskatchewan to Alberta. It is so unsustainable and sad to see that the government doesn’t care about their citizens. I never voted liberal but regardless of that, it shouldn’t be this hard and I don’t see it getting better - only worse.

It’s not fair! If a person comes to America legally on a student or marriage visa, their parents have to pay everything to bring them here, and those individuals cannot receive government assistance for five years. However, if someone comes here illegally, they are given free housing, cars, money, healthcare, food stamps, and other benefits. We need those resources for our own citizens, as our country is already struggling. If you can’t come legally, please stay in your country.

Have you seen the stupid visa forms for entering India for European citizens? \nStop cribbing when you are making it complicated for Europeans to get a visa.\nAlso, even countries like Thailand do not want Indian tour because of the disgusting behaviour many Indian tourists bringing a bad to name to all Indians.

South Africans have had to comply with these requirements for years. Letter of invitation for your stay. \nProof of residence in host country.\nProof of financial means to support yourself whilst there.\nQuality medical insurance in case of emergency. \nReturn flight ticket. \nMedical clearance for TB, HIV, STD's etc etc\nProof of employment in your home country.\nProof that you will return home. \nSubmit all that, and probably a few things I've forgotten. \nBTW, my hubby is a UK citizen, and we've been married for years, and I would still need to apply and comply!\nNo country owes anyone right of access, and if it threatens them in any way, they have the right to decline the application!
